150: Why no child is behind because of coronavirus

In this solo show Mark shares his thoughts and experience of what learning has really meant during lockdown.

It seems amazing that governments are declaring children need to catchup with missed work. How can there be no allowance for the world shutting down? Why does life have to look the same as before?

Surely if nothing else recent events have shown us all that life has to reflect what is happening to and for us?

You wouldn't expect someone to run a race with a broken leg you would reframe the expectations and goals. Let's take this opportunity to do the same for education.
